AHP1930 recognises Fentanyl, a synthetic primary mu-opioid agonist. It is commonly used as a short-term analgesic and anaesthetic, being approximately 80 times more potent than morphine. It is often delivered through transdermal patches or as lozenges that dissolve slowly in the mouth for absorption through mucosal surfaces. Side effects include hallucinations, anxiety, euphoria, muscle rigidity and respiratory depression. The effects of fentanyl are indistinguishable from those of inhaled heroin. As such, fentanyl has high abuse potential and several analogues are available on the black market. It is most often consumed orally, but may also be smoked, injected or snorted. Since the effects only last for a short time, fentanyl is extremely addictive. It is sometimes sold as heroin, often leading to overdoses.
